This free printable form offers a convenient way to track student absences throughout the school day. At the top of the sheet, write the date. Below the header are eight boxes. The periods are not numbered, in order to accommodate the "4-5" and "5-6" period numbering that many schools have to suit lunch times, etc. Teachers simply write the numbers of the class periods themselves. There are lines at the bottom for keeping notes.

Regular classroom teachers will enjoy this free reproducible, particularly on test days. A quick look over the next day serves as an easy reminder that "these kids still need to take the test." This sheet is also very handy for substitutes to log absentees for the regular teacher.
